Dancing In Front Of Mirrors

Exposing our selves to the world, opening our hearts to what is true and real is a lot like Dancing in Front of Mirrors.  We either love how we look and feel or we are shocked at what we see.

I personally use to hate dancing - I was self conscious and had not one decent move, well, maybe I had one or two I thought were decent, but in general, I was always teased for being a bad dancer and apparently my oldest son "got all his moves from me".  However, I personally think he's a super, adorable dancer and he got his own thing going on just fine.

Fast forward to today.  I suddenly found my groove.  I suspect it was always there, but maybe I truly found my mojo on the dance floor, throw in some 80s music or Disco and I'm dancing all night long without a care in the world.

Interestingly, I would also admit I am at a pretty decent time in my life.  Probably the most confident and happy I've been compared to my college days of poor dancing at the college clubs, and trying to figure out who the heck I was or wanted to be.  I find it interesting how age changes our perspective in such a positive away.  At least for most us.

I started looking at myself more closely in the mirror and in photos. (Aside from glowing due to the best skincare regimen of my life ;)  I discovered the best thing I can do for me, is to be honest about what I wanted in the now and in the future.  

How many of us truly understand and listen to our own heart's deepest desires?

Financial Freedom has always been a big goal, I just never knew how I would get there, but I never gave up on the dream.  Each year I find a little more freedom on this subject, but now, I want it more than ever.

I have two gorgeous little boys in my life, and I want to share my dreams of traveling the world with them. I want them to be exposed to different cultures, food, and languages.  I want them to know that Suburbia 101 is not all there is to living life.  I want them to know snow the way I knew snow (we live in Florida) I want them to understand their own heritage and be empowered with life experiences that will shape and mold their futures.

My motivation is no longer about my own needs, my motivation is achieving dreams through the eyes of my children.  This is a very unique perceptive.  It is what has changed when I look in the mirror.

Now I can dance freely!  I can smile with happiness!  I can tell myself the impossible is possible.

I see successful people in the same business as myself and I think, they are just like me.  They had a dream, they were motivated by their dream and they achieved their dream, one day, one step at a time.  This isn't a rehearsal anymore - this is real.

I will dance like I have never danced, spreading that joy of feeling free and happy to anyone and everyone who wants to join me as I Dance in the mirror.

I love the song Dancing Queen, by Abba. Let's dance and laugh and be Dancing Queens Together!
